  • Faculty & Staff

To add an unsubscribe link to outgoing messages from your list, follow the steps below:

  1. Go to https://lists.upenn.edu and log in with your L-Soft admin credentials.

    If you don't have an account, click "Get a New Password" to create one using your Penn email address and login with your L-Soft account information. If you do not yet have an L-Soft account set a password to create one.

  2. Once logged in go to List Management>Mail Templates:

  3. In the Select List drop-down menu to the right, choose the list you would like to manage.

  4. In the Search Templates text field, enter DEFAULT_BOTTOM_BANNER_HTML, then select the link below.

  5. On the next screen:

    Set the Subject field to: Unsubscribe link
    In the Contents field, paste the following exactly:

    .CS UTF-8
    
    ########################################################################
    
    To unsubscribe from the &LISTNAME list, click the following link:
    
    <a href="mailto:listserv@lists.upenn.edu?subject=Unsubscribe&BODY=unsubscribe%20&LISTNAME">Unsubscribe using Email</a>
    
    ########################################################################
  6. Click Update to apply your changes.

This will automatically add a clickable unsubscribe link to the bottom of HTML-format messages sent through the list.
